Ok well I have decided to start a blog about my fat Netherland Dwarf! lol. Her name is Willow. Now when I got Willow she was very overweight, but I think that she came down a bit because at county fair last year she was able to show in type.
So this blog is going to be all about her and her weight loss program she is on.
As you may know, we went to a show last weekend. When there we weighed Willow before her turn on the table. She weighed an astonished 2 1/2 pounds overweight!! I was completely shocked! Now this is also because she was being fed a lot when we thought she was preggo. Whenever I am at shows and looking at other ND's it is so easy to tell that Willow is almost three times the size of a regular ND. And it just breaks my heart to see her bigger than them. I want her to be average size.
So here are a few pictures of Willow when she was fat. (Now I just started Willow on this so she is still pretty chunky.)
This was at county fair and Willow was actually pretty good size, because she went into the type class and did great!
Here is another one of Willow, either a while before or after fair. She is still pretty good looking in this pic, although it is very easy to tell that she is too big for a ND.
Okay so after the show last Saturday I knew it was time for Willow to go on the " no pellets diet" And I was amazed today when I picked Willow up! I can actually fit my hands around her stomach a whole lot more! And I can see her chin, she has a dewlap and it NEEDS to go away. She doesn't get DQd for it though, I think mostly it is justreally extra skin and fur and well you know. So I am very proud of Willow, she has been doing such a great job eating only hay and a small amount of pellets like once every couple of days. I would like to say she has only been on this diet for FOUR days and the results are already incredible! I will be doing this with my other doe Autumn as well because she is on the plump side as well.
I will be posting more pictures of Willow's progress.
